-- TV on the Radio buddies Celebration are through with releasing music the traditional way. A post on their blog states their new forward-thinking strategy: "Our plan is to post new songs monthly, as we create and record them. All of our new music will be free to download. When we have enough music for an album, we will release it on vinyl for those who want to have something to hold." Sounds reasonable to us. They also have a note for the haters: "If we be fools, let us be the Fool of the tarot." Oh snap.

-- Folky Toronto band Rock Plaza Central have a new album ready to enter the world May 26 in Canada and June 16 in the U.S. It's called ...at the Moment of our Most Needing, or If Only They Could Turn Around, They Would Know They Weren't Alone. (Fiona Apple, all is forgiven.) Download a song off the album called "(Don't You Believe the Words Of) Handsome Men" here.

-- According to the AP, Eddie Bo-- New Orleans singer and pianist who worked with Irma Thomas and Art Neville, and wrote the Etta James hit "My Dearest Darling"-- died of a heart attack earlier this week. He was 79 years old.
